FELCO 7 - One-Hand Pruning Shear - High Performance with Rotating Handle

FELCO 7 One-Hand Pruning Shear - High Performance with Rotating Handle

The FELCO 7 is a masterpiece of ergonomic engineering, designed for professionals who face the most intensive pruning schedules. What sets the FELCO 7 apart is its innovative rotating handle, which moves on its axis as you squeeze. This mechanism distributes the cutting effort across all fingers and reduces the overall required force by 30%. By significantly lowering the friction between the hand and the tool, it prevents blisters and reduces the muscle strain associated with thousands of repetitive cuts.

Best For Professional arborists, viticulturists, and landscapers with large hands who perform heavy-duty, high-volume pruning and are looking for the absolute maximum protection against repetitive strain injuries (RSI) and carpal tunnel.

Key Features

• Innovative Rotating Handle: The lower handle rotates as you cut, working in harmony with the natural movement of your fingers to reduce physical effort and prevent hand fatigue.

• Angled Cutting Head: Features an ergonomic inclined head that acts as a natural extension of the forearm, keeping the wrist in a neutral position for superior comfort and control.

• Premium Swiss Bypass Head: Equipped with a high-quality hardened steel blade and a screw-mounted anvil blade, providing the clean, surgical precision required for healthy plant recovery.

• Forged Aluminum Construction: The handles are made from industrial-strength drop-forged aluminum, offering a lightweight yet virtually indestructible frame that carries a lifetime guarantee.

• Integrated Comfort Systems: Features cushioned rubber shock absorbers to soften the impact at the end of each cut, paired with a sap groove and a wire-cutting notch for maximum utility.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
